Discover the Côte Bleue. Less well known and less touristy than its southern neighbors, the Calanques and coves of this small spit of rock are no less charming.

Lined with small fishing villages and family-run restaurants, you'll want to spend the night here to discover all its coves, hike its footpaths and enjoy a sunset over Marseille with a bottle of rosé.

The blue coast

The Côte Bleue stretches north of Marseille from l'Estaque to Martigues. Treasures are revealed at every turn along this coastline, from confidential ports to secret beaches, and pine-edged coves where you can let time slow down.

Sometimes inaccessible, sometimes available to those who know how to find them, these maritime pearls have inspired great filmmakers such as Marcel Pagnol and Robert Guédiguian, who have chosen these places to sublimate their works.

Feeling hungry? The Mediterranean cuisine will delight your taste buds, all topped off with a breathtaking view over the bay of Marseille.
